This chapter describes how to install the programming software and configure the operation of the Cv2. When the configuration is complete, it can be viewed through the Summary command found on the File pull-down menu. In the summary, Warnings should be checked to ensure that there are no improper settings in the configuration before it is transferred to the Cv2.

The program diskettes supplied with the Cv2 contain the configuration software and the software installation utility. Place disk 1 into the floppy drive and select the program SETUP.EXE using Run in the windows Start menu. Follow the instructions and the installation program will automatically install the configuration program onto the hard drive.

To start the program, click on the Cv2 icon that appears in the installed location. The program will load and search for the default startup files:
